Hi Peter, I am not sure whether we should delay a release because of that.
Improving the situation wrt. the directory tree is important, but it is also okay if some part of it is released with 0.74, and another part is released with 0.76. The more frequent releases we have, the less it matters if a certain improvement makes it into the _next_ release. Best, Z.
